Brother, are you living free?
With clear blue skies on golden streets
Playing music all night long
Without a care in this old world
Does mama cook pork chops and beans
Black eyed peas and turnip greens?
Is there ham and a gravy bowl?
Fresh hot biscuits on the stove?
O brother, where
(O brother, where)
Where are you?
Are you happy, life's so new?
Free from pain and sorrow now
O brother, where
(O brother, where)
Where are you?
O brother, where, where are you?
Sister are there moonlit strolls
Falling stars, fresh fallen snow?
Does the wind blow through your hair?
Do dandelions grow everywhere?
And is there bluegrass, do kids sing?
Can you skip rocks in a stream?
Are you dancing in the rain?
To Melody's sweet refrain
O brother, where
(O brother, where)
Where are you?
Are you happy, life's so new?
Free from pain and sorrow now
O brother, where
(O brother, where)
Where are you?
O brother, where, where are you?
Does the puppy still bark at night
The fireplace burn, is there moonlight?
Can you chord a guitar string?
Hear Mr. Roy play the Opry?
O brother, where
(O brother, where)
Where are you?
Are you happy, life's so new?
Free from pain and sorrow now
O brother, where
(O brother, where)
Where are you?
O brother, where, where are you?
O brother, where, where are you?
